Humito's 13th experience with Salvia Divinorum,
8mg 2CB + 2 small pipes unenhanced dried homegrown leaves.

Friday 9-22-2000, it was a beautiful day and we were going into the city with 2 Spanish tourists, to buy mushrooms. We didn't know them at all, but the day before, an Iranian friend of ours, Jack, asked me if I knew any mushrooms for sale. Which of course I do. On the Nieuwe Binnenweg is a smartshop: Smart Store, where they still sell Mexican mushrooms. Luis and Rebecca were their names, this is funny, because I, Humito, am actually called Louis also.

When we left home we decided to take a little Ephedra. Not a large dose, 1 dose while 2 is recommended for a real boost and 4 for the die-hard speed-freaks. Round 1 in the afternoon we arrived in 't Trefpunt. We had a drink and waited for them. At 1.30 Luis and Rebecca arrived.

After smoking a nice pipe with marihuana, I asked them if they wanted some Ephedra also. And when I told them it's a legal boost, just like a strong cup of coffee, they wanted to try 1 dose also. Later it seemed they liked it. Rebecca said she experienced a light high feeling. She liked it, not too strong, not too pushy, but a relaxed extra energy.

When we arrived at the Smart store, they bought some mushrooms and some other plantextracts that make you high. We slowly walked back, but then they realized they had to go to a bank, so we zig-zagged back through the city to find the bank. They were here for a week allready, but they had not seen the city as we showed them. They loved all the stores on the Lijnbaan (a large shopping street), espescially Rebecca.

Around 6 o'clock we went home and they went to their hotel for dinner and because of all the walking we did, they wanted to take a bath. It had been quite warm. That night they would come to 't Trefpunt again. So we , Anneke and I, were going to eat also. Afterwards we were going to take a 2CB pill. Again we decided to keep the dose very low, about a quarter from a full dose. That is 8 mg.

Later that night we arrived in 't Trefpunt again. Slowly the 2CB started working now. It was a super-light effect, but still very nice. No deformations in my perception. No weird perspectives or other twisted forms. Everything was more beautiful, brighter, clearer and a shine around everything, as if it all just had been washed.

The soccer-table game got an extra dimension, I had a lot of fun, and I was faster than usual. It almost speaks for itself that you have a much better overview on things. You'd say you would be invincible, but that is not the case. You're easy distracted and laugh a lot. But this time that was not too much. 8 mg is for me and my girlfriend what is called a museum dose. You're clearly under the influence and it's easy to go with the flow, but when it's necessary it's possible to act normal immediatly. On that level it's very pleasant to walk, for example, in a museum. All the works of art get an extra dimension. It's as if a normal object becomes a work of art, and a work of art becomes something super-natural. No strange distortions, but everything radiates an energy, which normally is very hard to see. You can compare it with a dark and a sunny day. When you are in a forest and it rains, it all looks less beautiful than when the sun is shining. It's obvious that the sun doesn't change the forest, it is not more beautiful and radiating, it just looks more beautiful and radiating when the sun shines.

It must have been 10 or 11 at night when Rebecca came in without Luis. We had not seen Luis yet and we asked if everything was allright. She told us that they became much too stoned, and some misunderstandings had risen between them because of that and they had a fight. She went for a walk and came to 't Trefpunt. She wanted to sit in the back of the shop to think a few things over. Jack had a little talk with her and after about 10 minutes she went back to the hotel. She said they would be back the next day at 2 to say goodbye, because they were going back to Spain that day. Of course we would be there too, to say goodbye.

After this, Mo, a Maroccan aquintance, sat next to me. We started talking, and because we often play table-soccer together, we get to know eachother a little. I have given him Salvia before a couple of times and also the userguide from Daniel Siebert and this time I offered him some Salvia also. He did want that and borrowed my pipe. He filled it with my own grown unenhanced Salvia leaves and gave it to me.

Next to me sat Anneke, next to her Michelle and behind the bar was Carolien and on my other side was Mo. Slowly I started sucking on the pipe, the smoke into my lungs. Keeping it in as long as possible. Then I returned it to Mo, who filled a new one and smoked it himself. Then it was my turn again and after that Mo again.

Now we both were, I was anyway, rather under the influence of the Salvia. While I looked at my girlfriend, I saw a kind of aura of colours appearing around her, Michelle and Carolien. It looked like flames, not with the colour of fire, but all the colours imaginable through eachother. Each colour even brighter than the other. My own body melted away and as a couple of floating eyes I was looking at the rest. Then I turned to Mo and I thought he was very stoned also. I said to him: "look!" and I pointed to Anneke and Michelle. Mo said: "yes, I can see it, but why are these girls acting crazy". With a smile on his face he said:" hey, stop doing that", or something like that to the 3 ladies, who didn't even hear it, "I'm talking to Louis". After this he started a story, what I really didn't understand. I had arrived in a super-trip, everything was surrounded by beautiful colours. He said he felt that he was sucked out the black hole of the door. I also clearly saw that his body, halfway, from his hips down, disappeared in the dark.

The dark had become a world on itself. Again there was a lot of activity in the dark, a 1001 things happened, but I wasn't able to distinguish any of it. Mo was still telling a story, something about skates that he had been given by somebody unexpectedly. Allthough at that point I couldn't remember everything anymore. So many things were happening around me, that I had trouble concentrating on the conversation. Only a few fractions stayed with me, but the rest is completely gone. I'll surely ask him once, what exactly he was talking about, because it was a funny and strange story.

After that, Mo asked me to play table-soccer, which I wanted to. The Salvia had diminished allready, but the 2CB had been enhanced by the Salvia a lot and that was still hanging on. So I was playing table-soccer, while tripping kind of hard. I can't really remember this game either, but when I dig deep in my memory, I thought the score was 4-3 for Mo. I do remember that I had a good time, but I wasn't any good. Everything still had that aura of bright flaming colours. Everyone in 't Trefpunt was looking beautiful, kind and interesting. Anneke smiled at me with a kind, understanding smile. I told her redundantly that I still was under the influence, also even from the Salvia, which I thought had diminished allready.

The rest of the evening the Salvia would still have an influence on the 2CB trip. It was a very calm trip, but because of the Salvia it had become much more colourfull. It not only enhanced the 2CB effects, it also changed it obviously. Salvia gave the 2CB effects a profound lustre. The dose of 8 mg 2CB was maybe for 90% a spiritual mind-session, without visuals. With Salvia the aura's of colours appeared. When I concentrated on things nearby, like my own body, it all seemed to move and turn around. Everything further away had the aura of colours, but didn't move or turn around. Sometimes these aura's of colours became so bright and flaming, that the object or person surrounded by it, just faded away in all that. When I tried to look at the person or object, I eventually only saw the aura, as if completely vanished in the colours. This strong effect only lasted for a short time. The rest of the evening I saw less clear aura's. They didn't take over things anymore. Just an extra glow on everything. Anyway, it was a great night.

Around 1 a.m. we went home, and it was a very nice bicycle-ride. When we came home we just sat a little on the couch with a wonderful afterglow. It was 3 o' clock when we went to bed to get up the next morning without any hangover or anything. I really liked the mix of a light dose of 2CB and a light dose of Salvia Divinorum. It was worth doing again and I wonder wether it will give a similar experience. But I'll wait a while with that, because 2CBB is also not a substance to use every weekend.
